French Sole

I have some other FSNY shoes (Sloop) that are very flat. These are cute and comfortable and the slight wedge gives a little more support for walking. The gunmetal leather looks great with many things and has become like a neutral in my wardrobe thanks to these shoes. I would love these in red, burgundy or plum leather. I wear a 9 or 9.5 and in all FSNY shoes I size-up to a 10. So, size up!

I love this shoe! I have it in brown suede also. This is my travel shoe and it has gone to Europe for 2 trips. It goes with everything, is comfortable and doesn't take up a lot of space in luggage. It doesn't have arch support but that doesn't seem to matter. I have put in arch supports for long walks that I can remove also. I always get compliments when I wear this shoe.

You need to order at least half a size bigger on these. The toe area covers quite far up your foot,further than I expected. They are made from beautiful soft leather.

Cute - I like the rounder toe and higher cut but they run small! I ordered a 9 (my usual size) - too small. I ordered a 9.5 and they were still too small. I am not sure a 10 will even fit. Trying a different brand and style to see if I have better luck. I might come back to this shoe. I think it will be comfortable if I can just find the right size.

These shoes are like bedroom slippers! The cut is roomy in the toe box (plus no toe cleavage) and high enough in the heel that they stay on my feet, unlike most of my flats. The only issue is that one side starts to cut into the ball of my foot after I've been wearing them awhile. I am hoping this will go away as they wear in.

I have two pair of these and they are adorable as well as comfortable. I love the little heel. They run at least a half size short, but are nice for wider feet. I love them!

When I first was looking for good flats, these came up with all reviews being 5/5 stars. Now I see more of a spread. Wonder what happened there. Anyways, these shoes are just not comfortable. The worst thing was that they rubbed the back of my ankle to the point where I blistered and bled (both sizes I tried). The other thing is they are barely better than going barefoot. There is nothing between you and the ground but a thin piece of leather. I get more support and cushion from my Old Navy flip flops. They had good construction quality and looked very nice, but they were not for me.

These are really cute shoes. I didn't read about them running smaller so had to return the 7-1/2 I usually wear and order an 8. I am still getting used to them, one of them is rubbing the back of my foot and I'm hoping it will stretch. If you are looking for any type of support at all you will not find it in this shoe, it is more like a slipper. I will not use for walking any distances. I actually have a pair of Jessica Simpson ballet flats I bought for half the price that are more comfortable.

This is my 3rd pair of French Soul shoes. The first pair were gray and they were the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. I wore them out and purchased a black pair and noticed that they were a little tighter around the front of the shoe. It's taken a few months but they're finally stretched out to the point where they don't irritate my toe joint and I can wear them most of the day. The Zeppas are the same if not worse. I usually wear an 8 but had to send these back for an 8-1/2. They cut right across my foot and hit my big toe joint which causes a fair amount of pain. I know eventually they'll stretch out but it's still annnoying. Overall, it's a very comfortable shoe. Very soft leather on the inside. Nice little heel so you're not completely flat. The insole tends to come unglued in the toe box after wearing a few times.

A very cute shoe, but this is my second try with French Soles and they just don't fit me. I normally wear a 7 1/2 but ordered an 8 based on past experience, and in this shoe even that was too small, both in length and width. And while these are very cute, I question whether they are worth the high price given that they are just a fabric flat with no cushioning or support. Cole Haan's Air series (Air Bacara is a favorite) fit me better and provide a ton of cushioning.

I've looked for a pair of comfortable, but cute, animal print flats for a year. I love the French Salon flats. I have three pair of the Zeppa style, but never saw the animal print in the stores. While skimming Zappos, I came upon these. They were out of my size, so I signed up on the waiting list, and was notified within ten days that they had them. I am a 6 but wear the 6.5 in this brand. They arrived the day after I ordered them. They are darling and fit like a glove, although a little short. I like the Sloop but the Zeppa is my favorite because of the little heel. I have somewhat narrow feet but also have a bunion. Somehow this brand is almost formfitting to my feet and is not too wide. The edges never cut into my feet, either. They are super comfortable but still stylish. Thank heavens for Zappos!

This is a fabulous shoe! Feels like a slipper and flattering, as well. It ran just a bit short (and only for my right foot), and because of the extra soft leather upper, did not want to risk putting that much pressure on the toe of the shoe, so I am returning them. Hard decision, because I really wanted to keep them.

Love this shoe! I already have a pair in black suede so was eager to get another color. Some may not like the lack of arch support (and I have high arches) but I found the shoes extremely comfortable. Size-wise, the shoes were true to my 7.5 - 8 size feet. Already looking to get a pair of brown suede flats next fall. Very cute shoes, love them!

Gorgeous, wonderful shoe! I feel like a million dollars in style and comfort. I know the quality is superb! True what they say, order half size up from normal!

I loved them when I first got them (even with zero support), but they stretched so much that they no longer stayed on my foot. After a few months, I can no longer wear them. not worth the money.

This is the most comfortable shoe that I have worn in a very long time. I liked it so much that I immediately purchased two additional pairs. As recommended, I ordered one-half size larger than I normally wear, and it was a perfect fit.

I wear an 8.5 in most flats, and have a slightly wide foot. Stupidly, I ignored the advice of the company and went with an 8.5 in this shoes based on another reviewer's note that this is supposed to fit like a leather sock. Even though I will be returning for a 9, I will say that this shoes feels like absolute heaven on my foot just sitting around my apartment. My toes are a bit claustrophobic, which is why I'll size up, but absolutely everything else about them is divinely comfy. Can't wait to get the new size and take them out for a spin.

Buttery smooth is the right phrase. These things are lovely. Unlike the other reviewers, I have big size 10 feet. My toes sometimes show, but the leather is so supple I have no problems other than in the moment. These are ballet slippers; there is no support. I wear these when at conferences and such, where I am sitting a lot and want to be comfortable and presentable. These are not walking shoes...they are essentially expensive slippers to wear in public. I purchased the silver-y ones; they are more of a pearlescent white. They are a luxury in my world, which makes them all the better. I have my eye on the red pair.

I wear an 8.5 or a 9N. I got these in 9.5 and they were still to small, with my toes pushing through. The leather also looked shiny and not as nice as I thought it would for the price. I returned.

I consistently wear an 8 and these were way too small. Almost think they may have been mis-sized. I also thought they looked kind of cheap. Probably would be comfortable and maybe cute - if they fit.
